I'd seen this, and oddly enough am interested. While IRIX 6.5.18 runs
surprisingly well on my lowly 180Mhz R5000PC based o2, I've not used that
system since I got my R12k/270Mhz o2.

Has anyone actually tried it? Looking at the page, I get the impression
that it doesn't support audio or X-Windows yet. Both of which are features
I'd want.

I haven't, but I would prefer NetBSD 2.0.2 because there port is a lot more
mature (personally tested on an Indy):



However, there's only XFree86 for the SGI Indy Newport graphics, and that
only for Mips-Linux.

I haven't, but I would prefer NetBSD 2.0.2 because their port is a lot more
mature and stable (personally tested on an Indy):
